1. GC: You will go over this body carefully, examine it thoroughly, and tell me the conditions you find at the present time, giving the cause of the existing conditions, also suggestions for help and relief of this body; answering the questions as I ask them.
2. EC: Yes, we have the body, [5175].
3. As we find, there has come those periods when [with] the glandular secretions, the inability of the glands in thymus, thyroid, in the digestive forces of body for reproducing themselves, there is an increased quantity of that which forms as deposits, making pressures upon joints and centers along the spinal system, and are gradually being indicated in feet, ankles, and at times in hands and knees; or an arthritic tendency.
4. There are some applications that have tended to irritate these, and apparently the joints at times are swollen.
5. As we find, if there would be those administrations made first of properties to purify the glandular system; that is, increasing the circulation by the activity of Atomidine upon the glandular reactions and especially the thymus and thyroid, we may purify these, if through the periods these properties are taken the eliminations are increased.
6. Thus, as we begin to take these, we would take two drops of Atomidine, each day for at least five days, in a half a glass of water each morning before the meal is taken.
7. Then, as we find, heavy soda baths for this body; that is, put at least one pound of soda in at least twenty to twenty-five gallons of water. Massage the spine with this and let this be just as warm as not to be uncomfortable. Massage the areas over the lumbar and sacral and the limbs, the joints, the knees, the ankles, the toes, the feet and the hands, arms and shoulders. This is a week, you see, or five days after the Atomidine has been taken for the five days. On the sixth day, then have this massage in the bath,

followed by a shower and thorough rubdown with equal parts Olive Oil and Peanut Oil, especially in the spinal area from the end of the spine to that area between the shoulders and neck, or the whole length. Here we would massage upward all the way, circular motion, along the spinal area.
8. We would change the diet to that carrying little salt, unless kelp or health salt is used. We would increase the amount of the vitamins which come and appear in celery, lettuce, watercress, carrots, for all these natures will bring eliminations for the body.
9. These we would do. Be consistent, be persistent.
10. Have at least twenty treatments of such; that is, the massages, two series of the soda bath, followed with the oil rubs.
11. Do that.
12. Ready for questions.
13. (Q) What may be done to improve eyesight? (A) The head and neck exercise, but much is from the general condition. The vegetables and the massage will aid or strengthen eyesight. Head and neck exercises are very good. These should be taken regularly, though, not spasmodically. Do that.
